rhansen,

I don't think LPS5 meant to imply that short interest is reported on a weekly basis, because it's not. This week's Barrons is not a reliable indicator since this month's short interest was in fact reported this week.

Barrons is part of the WSJ family and thus is available via WSJ Interactive Edition, which is $6 a month or less. The Markets Data Center there has a link to the latest reported figures for Nasdaq, NYSE, and Amex. What's nice about getting the figures from WSJ Interactive is they are available very early the same morning the WSJ publishes the data.

I'm pretty sure brokers are only required to report short interest once per month. The Nasdaq site has an explanation on this, I don't have time to find the link, sorry. So if they are only required to report once per month, there is no way I know of to find it on a weekly basis.
